The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let's be straight with you – the next 16 days at Hof Maravi are a tough watch. This is a very consistent beginner-friendly beach and jetty break, but it’s exposed to the swell, and for the most part, the conditions are just not playing ball.
We’re looking at a long stretch of small, weak swell and wonky winds. For the first six days, from Tuesday the 21st of July right through to Sunday the 26th, the wave energy is pathetic – the combined energy is struggling to get past a measly 56 (weak). The swell is tiny, around 1 ft to 2 ft, with a short, weak period, and the wind is either cross-on or onshore, chopping everything up. It’s pretty much a write-off for a paddle. If you’ve got a kite, the cross-on breeze might be worth a look, but for a surfboard, it’s a no-go.
We finally get a little glimmer of hope on Monday the 27th of July. The morning session is the standout of the entire outlook. The wind goes glassy, dead calm, and the water is like a mirror. The swell picks up a touch to 3 ft from the WNW with a period of 8 seconds, giving us a combined energy of 93 (still moderate but the best we see). It’s surfable, but the word “ordinary” is in the notes. It’s the cleanest the lineup will be all period, but don’t expect barrels. The water temp is about average for the time of year, so no surprises there.
The rest of the week is more of the same story: small swell, cross-on winds, and choppy surfaces. The crowds are described as “sometimes” here, so with the conditions this poor, you’ll likely have the place to yourself. There’s another brief window on Saturday the 1st of August. The morning of the 1st, the wind goes dead calm again, glassy, with a 3 ft swell from the WNW and a period of 8 seconds. The combined energy climbs to 114 (moderate). It’s another “ordinary” session, but it’s the second-best option on offer. The afternoons every day are blown out.
From the 2nd of August onward, the forecast drops back into the doldrums – small surf, onshore or cross-on winds, and weak energy. Honestly, if you’re desperate for a paddle, the mornings of the 27th of July and the 1st of August are your only real shots. It’s a long, flat stretch otherwise.
Stay patient, and keep an eye on the charts. Conditions can’t stay this poor forever.
Rusty.

Information about the Hof Maravi Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hof Maravi provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hof Maravi can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hof Maravi surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Hof Maravi) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Hof Maravi may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
